Projects Finished

I have finally finished my January project. I had a lot of trouble putting the zipper in because my zipper foot broke. So thanks to my mom for putting it in for me. Here is the finished project.

I have also finished my Febuary project. Just in time too. Kaia's B-day is tomarrow. Few, she will have a birthday present from us.

For my March project I am going to sew a dress for myself. This is part of my more presentable self personal target. Help me choose what pattern I should follow. Which of the following dresses do you like the best?

A- The Black and white one.

B- The black and white.

C- The Burgandy One

Craft it Forward

Craft It Forward Exchange is based on the concept of the movie "Pay it forward".

I will send a hand made gift to the first three people who leave a comment to this post on my blog requesting to join the CIF exchange.

All the gifts will be made and posted out 'sometime within the next year'. How exciting to not know when your surprise package will arrive!

What you need to do in return, is craft it forward by making the same promise on your blog. This exchange is only open to those with active websites or blogs.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS PROMISE TO POST THIS SAME 'CRAFT IT FORWARD' MESSAGE ONTO YOUR BLOG, WHICH MUST BE ACTIVE IN ORDER TO PLAY. YOU WILL CRAFT IT FORWARD TO THREE PEOPLE WHO COMMENT ON YOUR BLOG.

I'd love for you to join me! Will you? Other comments are welcome, but only the first three will be my Craft It Forward recipients.

Come and join me who doesn't love a gift or giving gifts???

Notes on progress

Today I recieved a box from CTMH. It contained the ingredients for my next workshop. I can't wait to start working on these. I have to come up with some cards for the workshop so look forward to seeing pics of these cards.



On another note yesterday I was able to crochet 2 flowers. It took me awhile to figure out the pattern directions. After I sorted everything out Kaia was able to wear 1 to church. The one turned out pretty well.

I am also closer to finishing Kaia's purple dress. I have to put the zipper in and hem the skirt and slip. And then I get to start on her Cinderella dress.

February Project

I guess it is time to say what my February project will be. I have yet to finish my January project but it is on the way, I just have to put the zipper in and finish the hem. Hopefully the dress will be finished by the end of the week. I am 2 weeks behind on my scrapbooking but I should be caught up with that this week as well, I am trying to finish a scrapbook I started over 1 year ago all I have to do is add titles and some embellishments to the pages.

So anyway my February Project is:
